The latest line from Crowned Heads is off to stores.

Last week, the company began shipping Mil Días, Spanish for 1,000 days, a new line that is being made by Tabacalera Pichardo. It uses an Ecuadorian habano wrapper over a Nicaraguan binder and fillers from Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Peru.

  • Mil Días Edmundo (5 3/8 x 52) — $10 (Box of 20, $200)
  • Mil Días Corona Gorda (6 x 46) — $9.25 (Box of 20, $185)
  • Mil Días Sublime (6 x 54) — $11.50 (Box of 20, $230)
  • Mil Días Double Robusto (6 3/8 x 50) — $10.75 (Box of 20, $215)

As the story goes, the start of this blend took place in 2017 which is roughly 1,000 days before the cigars are being released.

This is the second Crowned Heads line from the factory, which also makes Juárez for the company. Crowned Heads is the distributor of Tabacalera Pichardo’s own brand, ACE Prime.
